  • Debugging FLEX/AS3 memory leaks

    - by Scott Evernden
    I have a pretty big Flex & Papervision3D application that creates and destroys objects continually. It also loads and unloads SWF resource files too. While it's running the SWF slowly consumes memory til about 2GB when it croaks the player. Obviously I am pretty sure I let go of reference to instances I no longer want with expectation the GC will do its job. But I am having a heck of a time figuring out where the problem lies. I've tried using the profiler and its options for capturing memory snapshots, etc - but my problem remains evasive. I think there are known problems using debug Flash player also? But I get no joy using the release version either. How do you go about tracking down memory leak problems using FLEX/AS3 ? What are some strategies, tricks, or tools you have used to locate consumption

  • Java: Checking if PC is idle

    - by Scott Straughan
    This is a rather tricky question as I have found no information online. Basically, I wish to know how to check if a computer is idle in Java. I wish a program to only work if the computer is in active use but if it is idle then to not. The only way i can think of doing this is hooking into the mouse/keyboard and having a timer. MSN Messenger has that "away" feature, I wish for something similar to this.

  • Simplest way on iPhone to unzip downloaded file?

    - by Scott Pendleton
    Goal: download a zipped file, unzip it, and save it in the iPhone app's Documents directory. The following code makes use of the initWithGzippedData method that was added to NSData in the Molecule app found here: http://www.sunsetlakesoftware.com/molecules As adapted to my app: NSString *sFolder = [NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Documents"]; NSString *sFileName = [sFolder stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"MyFile.db"]; NSURL *oURL = [NSURL URLWithString: @"http://www.isystant.com/Files/MyFile.zip"]; NSData *oZipData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL: oURL]; NSData *oData = [[NSData alloc] initWithGzippedData:oZipData]; [oZipData release]; b = [oData writeToFile:sFileName atomically:NO]; NSLog(@"Unzip %i", b); Result: A zip file is successfully downloaded. From it a new, supposedly unzipped file is created in the Documents directory with the desired name (MyFile.db) but it has zero bytes. Anybody see the problem? Or else is there a simpler way to unzip a downloaded file than the one used in the Molecules app?

  • C# converting string to hex and XOR on Hex numbers

    - by Scott's Oasys
    Im tring to do an XOR on 2 hex numbers to create a unique hex number ex. 7F4 ^ 65D which would equal 1A9 I understand how the XOR should work but every time I try to convert the string hex number: string hex1 = "7F4"; int hexInt = Convert.ToInt32(hex1, 16); I end up with a number: 2036 How do I keep the integrity of the hex number so I can do an XOR on the 2 hex numbers?

  • Parallax backgrounds in OpenGL ES on the iPhone

    - by Scott
    I've got basically a 2d game on the iPhone and I'm trying to set up multiple backgrounds that scroll at different speeds (known as parallax backgrounds). So my thought was to just stick the backgrounds BEHIND the foreground using different z-coordinate planes, and just make them bigger than the foreground (in size) to accommodate, so that the whole thing can be scrolled (just at a different speed). And (as far as I know) I basically implemented that. The only problem is that it seems to entirely ignore whatever z-value I give it, or rather it just zeroes all of them. I see the background (I've only tested ONE background so far, to keep it simple...so for now I just have a foreground and I want one background scrolling at a different speed), but it scrolls 1:1 with my foreground, so it obviously doesn't look right, and most of it is cut off (cause it's bigger). And I've tried various z-values for the background and various near/far clipping planes...it's always the same. I'm probably just doing one simple thing wrong, but I can't figure it out. I'm wondering if it has to do with me using only 2 coordinates in glVertexPointer for the foreground? (Of course for the background I AM passing in 3) I'll post some code: This is some initial setup: glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); glLoadIdentity(); glOrthof(-1.0f, 1.0f, -1.5f, 1.5f, -10.0f, 10.0f); glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); glLoadIdentity(); glEnableClientState(GL_VERTEX_ARRAY); //glEnableClientState(GL_COLOR_ARRAY); glEnableClientState(GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY); //transparency glEnable (GL_BLEND); glBlendFunc (GL_ONE, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA); A little bit about my foreground's float array....it's interleaved. For my foreground it goes vertex x, vertex y, texture x, texture y, repeat. This all works just fine. This is my FOREGROUND rendering: glVertexPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, 4*sizeof(GLfloat), texes); <br> glTexCoordPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, 4*sizeof(GLfloat), (GLvoid*)texes + 2*sizeof(GLfloat)); <br> glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLES, 0, indexCount / 4); BACKGROUND rendering: Same drill here except this time it goes vertex x, vertex y, vertex z, texture x, texture y, repeat. Note the z value this time. I did make sure the data in this array was correct while debugging (getting the right z values). And again, it shows up...it's just not going far back in the distance like it should. glVertexPointer(3, GL_FLOAT, 5*sizeof(GLfloat), b1Texes); glTexCoordPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, 5*sizeof(GLfloat), (GLvoid*)b1Texes + 3*sizeof(GLfloat)); glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLES, 0, b1IndexCount / 5); And to move my camera, I just do a simple glTranslatef(x, y, 0.0f); I'm not understanding what I'm doing wrong cause this seems like the most basic 3D function imaginable...things further away are smaller and don't move as fast when the camera moves. Not the case for me. Seems like it should be pretty basic and not even really be affected by my projection and all that (though I've even tried doing glFrustum just for fun, no success). Please help, I feel like it's just one dumb thing. I will post more code if necessary.

  • Core Graphics Rotating a Path

    - by Scott Langendyk
    This should be a simple one, basically I have a few paths drawn with core graphics, and I want to be able to rotate them (for convenience). I've tried using CGContextRotateCTM(context); but it's not rotating anything. Am I missing something? Here's the source for drawRect - (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect { CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext(); CGContextSetLineWidth(context, 1.5); CGContextSetStrokeColorWithColor(context, [UIColor whiteColor].CGColor); CGContextSetShadow(context, CGSizeMake(0, 1), 0); CGContextBeginPath(context); CGContextMoveToPoint(context, 13.5, 13.5); CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, 30.5, 13.5); CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, 30.5, 30.5); CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, 13.5, 30.5); CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, 13.5, 13.5); CGContextClosePath(context); CGContextMoveToPoint(context, 26.2, 13.5); CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, 26.2, 17.8); CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, 30.5, 17.8); CGContextMoveToPoint(context, 17.8, 13.5); CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, 17.8, 17.8); CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, 13.5, 17.8); CGContextMoveToPoint(context, 13.5, 26.2); CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, 17.8, 26.2); CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, 17.8, 30.5); CGContextStrokePath(context); CGContextSetFillColorWithColor(context, [UIColor whiteColor].CGColor); CGContextSetShadowWithColor(context, CGSizeMake(0, 0), 0, [UIColor clearColor].CGColor); CGContextFillRect(context, CGRectMake(26.2, 13.5, 4.3, 4.3)); CGContextFillRect(context, CGRectMake(13.5, 13.5, 4.3, 4.3)); CGContextFillRect(context, CGRectMake(13.5, 26.2, 4.3, 4.3)); CGContextRotateCTM(context, M_PI / 4); }

  • iPhone Key-Value Observer: observer not registering in UITableViewController

    - by Scott
    Hi Fellow iPhone Developers, I am an experienced software engineer but new to the iPhone platform. I have successfully implemented sub-classed view controllers and can push and pop parent/child views on the view controller stack. However, I have struck trouble while trying to update a view controller when an object is edited in a child view controller. After much failed experimentation, I discovered the key-value observer API which looked like the perfect way to do this. I then registered an observer in my main/parent view controller, and in the observer I intend to reload the view. The idea is that when the object is edited in the child view controller, this will be fired. However, I think that the observer is not being registered, because I know that the value is being updated in the editing view controller (I can see it in the debugger), but the observing method is never being called. Please help! Code snippets follow below. Object being observed. I believe that this is key-value compliant as the value is set when called with the setvalue message (see Child View Controller below). X.h: @interface X : NSObject <NSCoding> { NSString *name; ... @property (nonatomic, retain) NSString *name; X.m: @implementation X @synthesize name; ... Main View Controller.h: @class X; @interface XViewController : UITableViewController { X *x; ... Main View Controller.m: @implementation XViewController @synthesize x; ... - (void)viewDidLoad { ... [self.x addObserver:self forKeyPath: @"name" options: (NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew | NSKeyValueObservingOptionOld) context:nil]; [super viewDidLoad]; } ... - (void)observeValueForKeyPath:(NSString *)keyPath ofObject:(id)object change:(NSDictionary *)change context:(void *)context { if ([keyPath isEqual:@"name"]) { NSLog(@"Found change to X"); [self.tableView reloadData]; } [super observeValueForKeyPath:keyPath ofObject:object change:change context:context]; } Child View Controller.m: (this correctly sets the value in the object in the child view controller) [self.x setValue:[[tempValues objectForKey:key] text] forKey:@"name"];

  • Populate a combo box with one data tabel and save the choice in another.

    - by Scott Chamberlain
    I have two data tables in a data set for example lets say Servers: | Server | Ip | Users: | Username | Password | Server | and there is a foreign key on users that points to servers. How do I make a combo box that list all of the servers. Then how do I make the selected server in that combo box be saved in the data set in the Server column of the users table. EDIT -- I havent tested it yet but is this the right way? this.bsServers.DataMember = "Servers"; this.bsServers.DataSource = this.dataSet; this.bsUsers.DataMember = "FK_Users_Servers"; this.bsUsers.DataSource = this.bsServers; this.serverComboBox.DataBindings.Add(new System.Windows.Forms.Binding("SelectedValue", this.bsUsers, "Server", true)); this.serverComboBox.DataSource = this.bsServers; this.serverComboBox.DisplayMember = "Server"; this.serverComboBox.ValueMember = "Server";

  • Looking for replacement for Snippet Compiler

    I have been using Snippet Compiler for a few years, and it's great. Unfortunately, it isn't getting maintained, and is falling behind. Doesn't support .NET 4, which we recently switched to, and even some C# 3 features like extension methods get flagged as errors (though they do compile). Alternatives?

  • jquery jeditable pass multiple values...

    - by Scott
    Alright totally new to jeditable, Say I have some <div>'s and <input type='hidden' /> items that are generated dynamically with PHP like this: <?php while($row = $db->fetch_assoc($query)) : ?> <input name="hiddenID" type="hidden" value="<?php echo $row['id'] ?>" <div class="items"><?php echo $row['item']; ?></div> <?php endwhile; ?> Which gives me say...this: 1 //hidden value item1 2 //hidden value item2 3 //hidden value item3 And a jeditable inline-edit script to go along with it: hidden = $(".items").siblings("[name=hiddenID]").val(); //using a global var..don't know how to pass it into the editable function. $(".items").editable('save.php', { type : 'text', tooltip : 'Double-Click to edit...', onblur : 'submit', event : 'dblclick', submitdata : function() { return {id : hidden }; //how do I pass mutiple hiddenID values?? } }); I am wondering how to pass multiple values into the editable function. The way I've shown here only passes one value...the first row.

  • jQuery jPicker > Assign color of jPicker from a text link (not from jPicker)

    - by Scott B
    I've got a list of frequently used hex colors that I'd like to list under my jPicker bound input text field and I'd like to figure out how to change the value of the jPicker active color without opening the jPicker color selector palette. I've managed to create a function that updates the input field thats bound to the jPicker, but the colors of the background and picker.gif do not update. I'd like to force the background colors to update as if the color was selected from jPicker itself. Here's my code for the activation link... <span onclick=doColor(1,'cc9900')>cc9900</span> And here's the js handler function doColor(el, color) { if(el){$('#theme_header_color').attr('value', color);} else{$('#theme_sidebar_color').attr('value', color);} }

  • How to get SpecFlow working with xUnit.net as the test runner

    - by Mike Scott
    I'm trying to use xUnit.net as the test runner for SpecFlow. The SpecFlow 1.2 binaries from the official download area don't contain an xUnit.net provider but the master branch on GitHub has one, so I build SpecFlow.Core.dll from that. I'm using xUnit.net 1.5. However, when I change the unitTestProvider name in the app.config in my spec project, I get a null reference custom tool error and the generated .feature.cs file is the single line: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Has anyone succeeded in getting SpecFlow to work with xUnit.net? If so, how?

  • Objective C - when should "typedef" precede "enum", and when should an enum be named?

    - by Scott Pendleton
    In sample code, I have seen this: typedef enum Ename { Bob, Mary, John} EmployeeName; and this: typedef enum {Bob, Mary, John} EmployeeName; and this: typedef enum {Bob, Mary, John}; but what compiled successfully for me was this: enum {Bob, Mary, John}; I put that line in a .h file above the @interface line, and then when I #import that .h file into a different class's .m file, methods there can see the enum. So, when are the other variants needed? If I could name the enum something like EmployeeNames, and then, when I type "EmployeeNames" followed by a ".", it would be nice if a list pops up showing what the enum choices are.

  • Javascript/CSS rollover menus are patented and subject to licensing?

    - by Scott B
    Very interesting finding that a client brought to my attention today regarding javascript style rollover menus. They got a call from their legal dept that they need to change the manner in which their rollover menu is activated (at the risk of having to pay license to continue using the navigation technique). Its no April fools joke, apparently this is really happening. Apparently a company named Webvention LLC has obtained enforcement rights to a patent, U.S. Patent No. 5,251,294 - "Accessing, assembling, and using bodies of Information." A menu link, that when rolled over, expands to show a list of categorized, related links. Dropdown menus and slide-out menus are examples of this patented navigational methodology. A key component of this patent is that the dropdown/slide-out action must be initiated by a rollover or mouseover event. If the dropdown/slide-out action is initiated by any other event, such as a mouse-click event, then this behavior is not in violation of the patent. Anyone ever heard of this or know of the validity of its claims? Website is here: http://www.webventionllc.com/

  • Cannot convert IAsyncResult to AsyncResult when using a service refrence

    - by Scott Chamberlain
    I have a WCF service running, I added a reference to the service by using Add Service Reference in the solution explorer, and I checked the box for create asynchronous operations. My call works fine, I have a two way channel that reports back some events from the server and I am receiving the events. However, when the asynchronous task finishes in my callback handeler I get the error Unable to cast object of type 'SendAsyncResult' to type 'System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.AsyncResult'. Code that calls the method. DatabaseManagement.DatabaseManagementClient d = new DatabaseManagement.DatabaseManagementClient(new InstanceContext(new DatabaseManagementCallback())); d.Open(); d.BeginCreateDatabase("", "PreConfSA", "_test", new AsyncCallback(BeginCreateDatabaseCallback), null); The Async callback static void BeginCreateDatabaseCallback(IAsyncResult ar) { AsyncResult result = (AsyncResult)ar; //Execption happens here DatabaseManagement.DatabaseManagementClient caller = (DatabaseManagement.DatabaseManagementClient)result.AsyncDelegate; Console.WriteLine(caller.EndCreateDatabase(ar)); //Do more stuff here } Execption Details System.InvalidCastException was unhandled by user code Message=Unable to cast object of type 'SendAsyncResult' to type 'System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.AsyncResult'. Source=Sandbox Console StackTrace: at Sandbox_Console.Program.BeginCreateDatabaseCallback(IAsyncResult ar) in E:\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Sandbox Console\Program.cs:line 26 at System.ServiceModel.AsyncResult.Complete(Boolean completedSynchronously) InnerException: I don't really need the result from the EndCreateDatabase but everywhere I read it says that you must call EndYouFunctionHere() or bad things happen. Any recomendations?

    We currently have an Oracle 9i Client running on an HPUX Itanium platform and are looking at upgrading the Server from an Oracle 9i Windows 2000 Server to an Oracle 11g W2K3 Server. Is an Oracle 9i Client compatible with an Oracle 11g Server? Are there any problems with this configuration or is it recommended to upgrade the Oracle 9i Client to 11g as well?

    - by Scott Johnson
